I have a Confession
 
I like to mess with the fish tanks..... I even secretly like it when my rockwork falls apart because it gives me a chance to try something different





Pics will follow after the sand has settled down again :lol:

Nothing wrong with that marie...I do the same thing...I intentionally knock a rock over..."damn I have to rescape the whole tank now":sad::mrgreen:

Doesn't that stress out your fish?

Just the opposite, they are all pain in the butts because they move into where the rock used to be hunting for tiny morsels. I thought my copperband was going to follow one of the rocks I was lifting, right out of the tank :lol:

I think it stresses the reefer out more than the fish.

I havn't had my hand in my tank in over 4 months!!
Been leaving it how it is. I clean glass with magfloat, and take the Algae out of the overflow. BUt with a bare bottom and my light stocking. No need for me to be in there. I have to change that me thinks. Need to recapture the 'fun' I had with my tank. At present, it's just there.. I feed, then off to somehting else

I made a new years resolution to not mess with my tanks for a year. It was horrible but I did last about 10 months and then I removed every last piece of rock in there and completely relandscaped......:lol:

why would you clean out the algae from your overflow? no one sees it and it acts like an algae scrubber or refugium
